Doug's Rug Care offers non-slip rug pads, leather and fine fabric protector, rug wrapping and moth proofing, as well as a variety of in-home cleaning services including carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, and tile and grout cleaning.

Rug pads extend the life of your rugs by cushioning the blow of a shoe against the hard floor surface, they provide additional comfort, and prevent sliding. In general, thicker rugs do not require additional padding, while thinner, older or softer rugs, and rugs that have been rewoven or patched, will really benefit from the addition of a pad.

Rug pads also protect the floor beneath the rug from dye transfer, they allow the rug to breathe and moisture to evaporate, they keep the rug in place, and they will catch dirt so you can vacuum more easily. The rug pad should be about 1" from the edge of the rug (not including the fringe) so it doesn't show.

A thicker pad offers more cushioning and therefore extends the life of the rug more than a thinner pad or no pad at all, but the decision regarding the thickness of the rug pad is based on the look and feel of the rug when you walk across it.

When professionally applied, Scotchgard™ Protector helps rugs and carpets stay cleaner and fresher longer, it makes vacuuming and spot removal between professional cleanings quicker and easier, and it makes your next professional cleaning more effective.

547 Fiber ProTector® is the most technologically advanced protector available. It is safe for virtually all fabrics, leather or suede and harmless to humans, animals, and the environment. It forms an invisible shield around fibers that provides a barrier against all kinds of organic matter, fluids, dust and debris that could result in permanent stains. Fiber Protector adds UV protection and protects color. It does not affect surface texture and it allows the treated fabric to breathe.

We recommend 547 Fiber ProTector for fine leather pocketbooks, purses, and wallets, leather & suede coats and hats, and it's great for car, boat, and RV interiors!

If you are planning to store your rug, professional wrapping and moth proofing can protect it from damage.

With over 20 years of professional cleaning experience, you can count on Doug's Rug Care for all your in-home carpet, upholstery, and tile and grout cleaning needs.
